Executive Summary
This was AdvaMed president Stephen Ubl's first annual meeting since taking the helm in July, and already measured tone and passion for policy, and emphasis on transparency is already pervading the organisation, writes Karen Riley. A year ago, the meeting emphasised entertainment over substance. Not so in Naples, where the after-luncheon speakers were a Senator and a deputy secretary of Health and Human Services - quite a contrast from last year's inspirational speech by a renowned mountain climber who beat cancer.
